Creating Depth & Layers in an Unassuming Location (Behind the Image Ep.002)

[@AlliesCritiquesenCajun]

Thank you SO much for posting videos on set like this. As an aspiring photographer, it’s extremely helpful to see a professional actually doing a shoot while explaining things very clearly along the way. You are awesome 😎

[@KatelynJames]

You are too sweet! Thanks for watching!

[@katelyngray4335]

Absolutely loved the All Access of this wedding! It was one of my faves! Beautiful wedding, and you did such a great job capturing it!

[@KatelynJames]

Thank you so much!!

[@jessicalaren]

Loved this! Thank you Katelyn for sharing this! Loved hearing your thought process and how you manage to add more to an image without it looking like you added it. This series has been helpful to me so far & makes me realize what I can do to add a little jazz to an image.

[@KatelynJames]

Glad it was helpful!

[@pennyroach4750]

I would like to thank you for sharing all your wonderful videos. I take pictures because I love looking back and remembering all the things family has done together. It is nice to have a little more knowledge about how to do it correctly so thank you so very much!

[@KatelynJames]

Thanks for sharing!

[@nurseveronica]

This is such a gorgeous, soft romantic image!! I absolutely love how you transplanted the weeds! You’re my kind of gal. I bring pruning shears to all of my photo shoots, and I can’t live without them!😆💖 Thank you for another amazing video, you are such an inspiration!

[@KatelynJames]

Thank you so much!

Excellent work!

Thank you very much sister, I am fascinated by the detailed analysis of your photography. Will give such video in future. Hope you are well. I am Bangladeshi

[@KatelynJames]

Thank you so much 🙂

[@eliskatesarova3104]

Definitely the best picture I've seen from you! Great tips.

[@KatelynJames]

Yay! Thank you!

Awww Melanie your wedding day was so beautiful!

[@KatelynJames]

It really was!!

[@lisaliberati9849]

Hi Katelyn! ISO and SS question. You had a very quick shutter speed for these with an ISO of 200-350. Can you talk through why not put your ISO as low as it can go (100 I assume) and then just lower your SS to capture the light you. may have lost from a lower ISO?

[@KatelynJames]

Thanks for watching!

[@norgerichard]

Very help full

[@queeniepennington9501]

I love this!!!! I learned a lot

[@KatelynJames]

Glad you liked it!!

[@Fredsdances]

Beautiful Image. I have to add my request as to why you stayed at 320 ISO. Is this for your editing purposes? Love to know. Thanks

[@SusanneGeert]

Wondering the same thing ;-)

[@Union-force]

Something here,

[@laurabattel5766]

Hi! I’m curious about that too!

[@KatelynJames]

Thanks for watching!

[@sherryconnell4522]

I struggle with sharp focus when shooting wide shots with my 85. What’s your secret with getting sharp focus when shooting far away, with a low aperture (2.0) and with your 85- thank you, Katelyn!

[@SusanneGeert]

Would love to know as well ;-)

[@ginnyrae2672]

I struggle with that as well. I've thought of asking the same question!

[@KatelynJames]

Thanks for watching!

[@devacollins2559]

So beautiful!

[@KatelynJames]

Thank you! 😊

[@JaysonDD]

Wonderful images. Can I ask why not iso 100 with such a high shutter speed? I’m still learning, just wondering. Thanks!

[@SarahGodfrey23]

I have the same question

[@KatelynJames]

yes that could have been different! It wasn't intentional... but honestly, I don't think that adjustment would have made a big difference at ALL. So yes, its technically not as great as it could have been but the impact is low.

Love following your bts! How many poses/how much time did you stay in that spot?:)

[@KatelynJames]

Thanks for watching!

[@lindapeters3743]

Was this shot with your Canon R6 ? LOVE it. What is the visual or compression difference between the 85 and 70-200?

[@SusanneGeert]

Curious to hear this as well;-)

[@KatelynJames]

Thanks for watching!

[@bobortiz]

The flowers at to high it cuts off the beaty of the dress.

[@KatelynJames]

Thanks for commenting twice!

[@sjphoto9167]

R6? EF or RF lens? Love it!

[@KatelynJames]

This was with the Mark IV

[@tzbro759]

Just curious, why do you use ISO320 instead of ISO100? The shutter speed would be already high enough under 100

[@KatelynJames]

When I’m adjusting quickly, I like to have a buffer on a wedding day! The difference between 320 and 100 is so minimal! 320 allows me to walk into a bridal suite from being outside and quickly capture something with a quick shutter reduction and not have to go too low.

[@lisannecaldera2609]

Why didn't you drop the ISO in this setting? Just curious. Also who is the gentleman in the dark suit and what is he shooting?

[@KatelynJames]

The ISO could have been lower! That wasn't intentional. The guy shooting was the videographer!

[@ginnyrae2672]

These are gorgeous. I notice you don't seem to drop your iso down to 100 even in the mid day sun. Is this a technique I should know about? Share your secrets girl haha. Love your channel! ❤

[@SusanneGeert]

I was wondering the same thing?

[@KatelynJames]

Thanks for watching!

[@irmgard1995]

Just one question. With it being so bright and in the middle of the day; why did you decide to shoot on ISO 320 and not on ISO 100?

[@KatelynJames]

Thanks for watching!

What is the tablet you always use?

iPad Pro!

Thanks! Ty shoots with the Canon C70 and mostly the EF 24-70 f/2.8L!

Correct!
